Before posting, first discuss with the protecting admin at their talk page. Post below only if you receive no reply.

  • To find out the username of the admin who protected the page click on "history" at the top of the page, then click on "View logs for this page" which is under the title of the page. The protecting admin is the username in blue before the words "protected", "changed protection level" or "pending changes". If there are a number of entries on the log page, you might find it easier to select "Protection log" or "Pending changes log" from the dropdown menu in the blue box.
  • Requests to downgrade full protection to template protection on templates and modules can be directed straight here; you do not need to ask the protecting admin first.
  • Requests for removing create protection on redlinked articles are generally assisted by having a draft version of the intended article prepared beforehand.
  • If you want to make spelling corrections or add uncontroversial information to a protected page please add {{Edit fully-protected}} to the article's talk page, along with an explanation of what you want to add to the page. If the talk page is protected please use the section below.

Check the archives if you cannot find your request. Only recently answered requests are still listed here.

Request unprotection of a page, or reducing the protection level

Talk:ChatGPT

Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – This page was already helpfully re-protected by Floquenbeam after the expiration of the previous three-month protection immediately caused the unproductive IP edits to resume again with high frequency (like the previous four times. But a week isn't enough - these edits do not come from some sort of campaign, but rather appear to be made by hapless Internet users who mistake this talk page for the chatbot's interface. I suggest at least one year this time. Regards,. HaeB (talk) 08:00, 29 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Automated comment: One or more pages in this request appear to already be protected. Please confirm.—cyberbot ITalk to my owner:Online 08:02, 29 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
PS: Not quite sure why Twinkle sorted this under "Decrease"; in any case this is about increasing the duration of the existing protection. Regards, HaeB (talk) 08:07, 29 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
